Did you know that Turtle Stew is the National dish of Grand Cayman? Well, I knew this tidbit before I visited. And though I would classify myself as a foodie, I decided to pass on sampling this local delicacy.
It may just be delicious, but I perfer to have an up-close-and-personal encounter with a live turtle swimming ’round a touch pool as opposed to in my soup bowl.
So, I of course jumped at the chance to visit the Turtle Farm on Boatswain’s Beach on Grand Cayman.
Unfortunately, the day I visited was cloudy and nasty and by afternoon, most of the tour guides had gone home for the day. But there was one guide, who is also in charge of feeding the turtles, that was nice enough to show me around. And we practically had the place to ourselves.
The Turtle Farm began in 1968 as a way to domesticate Green Sea Turtles. Currently there are 4 species of Sea Turtle on the farm; Green, Kemp’s Ridley, Loggerheads and Hawksbills, totaling over 7,000.
The Kemp’s Ridley species is actually the rarest, most endangered turtle. They are known only to breed in the Gulf of Mexico, but a few were found and brought to the farm. Through breeding, those few have now grown to 40.
All of the turtles are held in separate touch tanks, grouped together by age and species. I got to hold a Green Turtle in the youngest group they had on hand, which were yearlings. To pick one up, hold it by grasping firmly under the flippers, shell facing in, toward your body. He may start flappin’ his flippers, but a few gentle strokes under his chin will quickly soothe him.
